The Bound Between Us

Chapter 428

Katie described, “He’s around thirty, about 180 centimeters in height, medium build, with blond curly hair. I’ve seen him several times, even at night.”

At this, Anastasia’s alarm bells went off. “Katie, why didn’t you say something before? When did you start seeing him?”

“I didn’t think much of it at first, so I forgot to mention it,” Katie recalled. “I think it was about a month ago. I saw him climbing out of our backyard. I thought he was a burglar, so I confronted him. He said he dropped something in our yard and was retrieving it. I didn’t suspect anything at the time. But last night, I saw him lurking around our front door again.”

“Let’s check the surveillance footage,” Anastasia suggested quickly.

They hadn’t lost anything from the house recently, so it didn’t seem like burglary.

Salma admitted, “I’ve never seen him.” If it hadn’t been for Katie’s disclosure, Anastasia would have been completely unaware.

Anastasia pulled up the surveillance footage and searched for the time Katie mentioned. Sure enough, the footage showed a man skulking around their front door.

The man was wearing a hat and a mask. He climbed into the yard around nine o’clock the previous evening, sat on the porch steps for a while, and then climbed back out.

“Not a burglar?” Anastasia was puzzled. He climbed in but didn’t steal anything. What was he doing? To be precise, the man did nothing that could be seen on the video.

Salma noted, “I was home at that time last night. I was in the art studio with Pattie, helping her paint.”
